It's going to be terrible, but please don't give up. So many people will need us. If you're not able to help physically, see if you can donate to those who can. SPLC, ACLU, food banks, anything. 🩷
Not that anyone reads my posts, but I went back to Twitter last week and prefer it.
1- Blue Sky is great for big accounts, but the rest of us are invisible with no way to grow or get engagement
2- Sky is VERY white. Not a place I wanna hang out.
3- 99% of my followers here are bots

Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.

📢 Does everyone realize Trump's "big, beautiful bill" contains massive cuts to HUD, eliminating Section 8 housing vouchers?
So when millions lose their Medicaid and SNAP, they'll ALSO become homeless.
Please raise this with your members of Congress. Doesn't seem to be on their radar.

Rep. Julie Johnson to Noem: "Are you aware that ICE agent jackets are available on Etsy for $20? Anybody can throw a mask on and run around and terrorize people of color without any regard for the law because your agency does not have proper protocols to make sure your agents are clearly identified"

All you need to know about Americans' willingness to protect their democracy is that 24 hrs ago, the president said he doesn't know if he has to follow the Constitution, and no one is pouring into the streets to demand impeachment.
I'm sure there will be online petitions though.

Prior to the American Revolution, most countries were ruled by monarchs, and no people in history had dared to say they were equal to the King, much less to revolt against them. Our Revolution gave courage to others.

📢 Is anyone gonna mention that Trump's budget cuts HUD and Section 8 housing vouchers, or are we just ignoring that
MILLIONS of people will be left homeless.
Many were homeless before they got vouchers.

Been on Blue Sky for months and still don't get any engagements. Lots of big accounts following just to build their numbers, but they don't engage, Like or Share. I realized none of my Twitter friends are here anymore. Seems like everyone got sick of being invisible.

The majority of our Dem leaders need to find even one-tenth of her courage.
AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care?
There’s nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.
